They aren't taking any steps back. They are doing the exact same things, just saying something else so that they can later say "we wanted to be friends, it was you who didn't" while doing all they can to fuck us over.

Oh ok. So the word evolve hasnt adapted to mean "slowly changes over time due to small changes" in day to day speak, along with many other meanings. See pokemon, video game bosses etc. etc.
We already doublespeak in many situations. For example "theory" in layman's terms is used like "hypothesis" instead of it's true meaning. Where as it's true meaning is pretty much only used in scientific terminology.
Anyway I'm sure 100% of people understood exactly what I meant.
And this is about the English word in the English use, with English rules, so let's stick to those, shall we.
Milk is another word with another angle. The connotation is no longer, in everyday layman use, connected to "something you get out of a teet" and instead it is what children drink, you put in cereals or coffee, etc.
That's the beauty about languages, they evolve with the needs of the populace that uses them.
We no longer live in an agrarian society, so when somebody now speaks of milk, you don't think, "what did they milk it from", you think "what are they going to put that thing in that they bought from a shop".
A sausage is a sausage, no matter what you stuff inside it. It's the shape, use and all the practicalities of a sausage that determine that it's a sausage.
When I hear "sausage" I know what to do with the thing. I can't know what it includes.
Beef? Pork? Chicken? Horse? Peas? Beans? Mushroom? Tofu?
That's to be determined by the other words on the package.
Is this picture potato quality or is it just my end?
Just checking that you are aware that Volvo is basically Chinese now a days.
If it's already built into the car the car won't be any less expensive just because the features is locked behind a subscription.
Even if you don't buy the subscription, you already payed for the feature since they already built it into your car. They didn't do that for free and hope that you pay for it later.
Completely off topic, but I couldn't help noticing that that is the ugliest car interior I have ever seen. From the wonky cornerless screen to I don't know what's going on with that steering wheel and the horrendously stripy all over the place centre console.

That captcha is not letting me through no matter how many times I try.
Hate those multiple choice images, they're terrible captcha, or I'm a bot.
